Star Wars Battlefront Uses Nothing from Battlefield

Star Wars Battlefront is on the horizon and we can’t wait to ready our blasters and wage war across the galaxy. DICE, the studio behind the popular Battlefield games is working on Battlefront but the folks over there want to make sure people know that Star Wars Battlefront isn’t just going to be a re-skinned version of a Battlefield game.

DICE general manager Patrick Bach explained in the latest issue of Official PlayStation Magazine UK that the two games do not share any assets. “They are as far apart as any shooter would be to any other shooter. I think people will be surprised that it’s even a DICE game in some cases, but I think that the quality of the game and the quality of the audio, the visuals, the emotion it evokes will hopefully feel very DICE.”

Star Wars Battlefront is due to be released on the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC on November 17 in North America, November 19 in Australia, and November 20 in Europe.
